"He got an adult civil citation," a source told the website. "If he completes the sanctions it will never show up on his record.

"They commonly give them to juveniles on first criminal offenses. They are now doing it for minor misdemeanors for adults to lower crime rate."

A source told SB Nation that Winston will be fined $30, required to do community service and suspended from FSU's baseball team, with whom he's 1-0 with a 1.50 ERA in 16 appearances this spring. Winston was named to the preseason All-America third team as a utility player by Baseball America.

A 2 p.m. ET news conference in Leon County has been scheduled regarding the case.

In December, the state attorney in Florida decided not to charge Winston after he was accused of sexually assaulting a woman at an off-campus apartment on Dec. 7, 2012. The quarterback had faced felony charges.

The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights has since opened an investigation into FSU's handling of the allegations against Winston and potential Title IX violations by the university.

Winston also was involved in two other minor incidents, but was never arrested or charged in either case. In November 2012, police questioned Winston and other FSU football players after 13 windows were broken at an apartment building near the school's stadium, after an apparent BB gun fight. In the second incident, in July 2013, a Burger King employee called Tallahassee, Fla., police to complain that Winston was stealing soda.
